One more thing, about Shadow’s character in this. Yes, his personality at first was based off of the Shadow the Hedgehog game (which came out around the same time as the original series); however, the creator gave a legitimate reason as to why he’s acting this way rather than this being his character because whatever. If you saw (or remember) episode 8 of the original series, it’s heavily implied that this Shadow is the Shadow from Sonic Adventure 2, Heroes, and 06; but because of what happened on Mobius when Mecha Sonic became OP, that Shadow basically went through what Samurai Jack Season 5 did and started acting like the “edgehog” he’s known as today. Now if that part of the story carries over to the reboot, then that means that we’ll have to endure a few more episodes of “Ow The Edge” before we get the Shadow from the old days. But we’ll just have to wait and see.
The reason Tails and the others were killed off was because the creator was going for a Future Trunks vibe with Metal Sonic fusing with all the other Sonic robots to become a more powerful robot. They not only got killed off because Metallix (that’s his name now) wanted to “get his revenge” at Sonic by going for the heart, but to make it so he would be seen as a legitimate threat, a true menace. Yeah, I’m not fond of my favorite character, Tails, and the others being killed off to tell a tragic backstory; but it was done so that Sonic, Shadow, and the Mario Bros. had something to fight for rather than just being like “Hey we accidentally teleported the Chaos Emeralds here and we need your help at getting them back”.
The reason it was Mecha Sonic is because at the time, the creator didn’t have the tools to make a custom sprite for Metal Sonic’s “upgrade”. Yeah, Mecha Sonic was more of a visual downgrade, but all it served was his “imperfect form” until he got the Chaos Emeralds to achieve his Perfect Form (which is what we see in the intro and episode, but is now his new base form). His new perfect form is probably the one thing fans are looking forward to the most.
I see the original version of the series when I was young. It was a pretty cool. Mark Haye (aka, Alvin-Earthworm.). I need to watch the reboot version of it. Also, does everyone get a Stardust Crusaders vibe from it?
I don't think he killed off Sonic's friends because he found them useless. He killed them off to show off just how much of a threat Metallix is. If none of the characters from Sonic's world died... How does the audience know the threat level of Metallix. Sure, he nearly killed Yoshi in a 1v1, but nearly isn't actually. I alsp don't think he cherry picked Shadow's personality because it was in just one game. Shadow always seems to have the kind of attitude that's shown here. Unapologetic, condescending, and focused on his mission. And, if you truly watched the whole original series, you'd know that it was hinted that there was a reason for him to have the personality he had. The creator may have dived deeper into it further on, but it was hinted in the last episode before he shelved the series the first time.
@@FrostTheHobidon Actually, I know it's been two years, but I think I just realized another reason why Sonic's friends had to go. It creates a route for character progression. I have no way of proving this, but perhaps when Mark first made this series (and will do so in the reboot), he intended to have something that each of the main characters would have to overcome in order to become better fighters and, in turn, finally be able to defeat Metallix. Luigi has his intense fear. Shadow has his thirst for revenge and anger. Mario, I'm guessing, either has his rivalry with Bowser distracting him, though perhaps something else would have/will come up. Yoshi has his early defeat from Metallix... and Sonic has the failure to protect his home. With his friends alive, his failure isn't as personal, so it's easy to overcome, especially with having someone like Tails, Amy, or even Knuckles there to support him. With his friends dead, his failure becomes personal, and with the only other one he knows to have survived being Shadow, someone that sees Sonic as a means to an end, Sonic has no one to lean on to overcome his failure, except his new friend Mario. The problem will come in the fact that others have come to his rescue again and again. I can see Sonic getting to a depressed state or to a state where he feels less and less like a hero, and more like a burden. That will be the failure that he'll have to overcome, something that would hit as hard if he had, say, Tails with him.
I was gonna say," You should react to Episode 2", but you already got that planned out! =) Also, don't worry. I know how you feel! I mean, Shadow is one of the characters that happens to be the "edgelord" of all things. And he can get a little grumpy sometimes! ^^; But one of these days, Shadow will finally admits his mistakes and his guilt, he'll turn over a new leaf, Aaaaand...he'll cave in and start working with Sonic and the gang to fight Eggman. He just needs some time to not only get over his "edginess", but he needs to stop thinking about the past and start thinking about the future! ^_^
so what are your thoughts on the super mario bros z reboot so far and the entire series in general? is this series any good to you or do you still not like it because of how mecha sonic (who has been replaced by metallix in the reboot) is portrayed?

I kinda like that kind of crossover series.
Mark Hayes really has improved over the years.
Just to let you know Frost, Episode 2 Remastered of this series is out now.

I know it just feels like that Whole Goku and Vegeta only matters while the rest are weak and useless and get no love.
But I see what you mean

Maybe we'll get to see that when he gets his own movie.
